Le #crabe mantou vit entre la Floride, toute la #Caraïbe et le Brésil, dans la #mangrove où il creuse des terriers pouvant atteindre 75 cm de profondeur, jusqu'à la nappe phréatique.

Mangrove Forests Fight Climate Change—But Climate Change Is Fighting Back

Mangrove forests have adapted over tens of millions of years to survive in harsh flooding from salty seas,…

#MangroveForests are healing after decades of human destruction

by Matt McGrath and Esme Stallard
June 4, 2026

"The world's coastal #mangrove forests, which protect millions of people from storms - and soak up vast amounts of planet-warming gases - are staging an unexpected comeback, scientists find.

"For decades these swampy trees had been declining rapidly as they were cleared for fish farms and housing.

"But a new study shows that since 2010 the world has been gaining more mangroves than it has been losing - driven by stronger #LegalProtections and increased #PublicAwareness of their importance, sparked by disasters such as the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami.

"The researchers say the key factor though is the remarkable capacity of these forests to #regenerate naturally once humans stop chopping them down.

"Mangroves are one of the world's unsung #environmental heroes.

"Not only do they store up to five times more #CarbonDioxide than land-based forests, but their tangled roots can also slow down waves and protect coastal communities from #StormSurges and #tsunamis.

"These same roots provide a perfect nursery for many species of fish and other #MarineLife - protecting them from predators and providing ample food.

"These benefits, though, have come under serious threat over the past century as the rise of fish farming, agriculture and the expansion of coastal cities and towns have seen mangroves chopped down and rapidly removed.

"From the 1980s to 2010, over 12,000 sq km (4,600 sq miles) of mangroves were cleared or destroyed across #Asia, #Africa and the #Americas - an area the size of Jamaica.

"However, the new study shows a real reversal of that trend, particularly over the last decade. The total net losses - the forest lost and not replaced - since the 1980s have now been reduced to around 849 sq km (328 sq miles)."

Capitalism and democracy do not necessarily go hand in hand. ... Perhaps the greatest threat to freedom and democracy in the world today comes from the formation of unholy alliances between government and business.

Hi all! For the past few months I've been involved with this project called the Ocean Song Project, supported by Ocean Wise, a global conservation organisation based in Vancouver, Canada.

Songs will be released every Friday starting from this week, where they can be purchased through Bandcamp via https://oceansongproject.bandcamp.com/ or streamed through Qobuz. All music sales go 100% to mangrove plantation efforts! 🌱

Yesterday's release was an a capella mashup by Emiko Wijeysundera, whose behind-the-scenes music video can be found here: https://youtu.be/XikQCiwwLfM?si=Gdaet2BUQ9MQc0PB

Anyways, this is a cover illustration I made for Mexican artist Vazlá and his ambient-electronic track which will soon be released in the coming weeks! 🐋💙

🇧🇩🌳 Bangladesh, home to the largest mangrove forest in the world, is on the cusp of passing two new laws that will rewrite the rules for how forest resources are used and conserved.

Can this new legislation change the fortunes of Bangladesh’s fast-depleting green cover?
